Tricky economic times, a financial safeguard many must have, plus advice on risky investment funds, annuities, and taxes tied to inheritances.

On this week’s Money Matters, Scott and Pat discuss complicated financial conditions unfolding in the U.S. and around the world. An Ohio father with a question about saving is told to get off the phone and do something else for his family immediately. A 63-year old who is still working asks when the best time to retire will be. Later in the show, Scott and Pat take a deep dive into Cathie Wood’s ARK funds, tackle a caller’s question about annuities, and provide peace of mind for a grandson about to inherit a large chunk of change.   Join Money Matters:  Get your most pressing financial questions answered by Allworth's CEOs Scott Hanson and Pat McClain live on-air!
